Guiding the Chapter at your School

It takes leadership ability to guide a Student Chapter, and members of the chapter’s executive board leave an important legacy through their collaboration, organization, and the way they share the chapter’s story. Here are some resources to help you have a successful year:

Chapter Officers Handbook

Chapter of the Year application – REQUIRED!
The application serves as official Chapter history and as entry into the Chapter of the Year award running. Learn more about the Award.

Selection & Induction The selection and induction are manageable with preparation, clear communication, and teamwork among chapter leaders including the chapter adviser and coordinator. It is recommended that the process be discussed as a top priority at the first meeting between the student executive board members, the chapter adviser, and chapter coordinator..

Transitioning to new officers – Continuity binders with notes, social media accounts and passwords, event reports, how to’s, etc. are essential. In lieu of a physical binder, you could also have a centralized online location for documents (but be sure to share the location with your Adviser and Coordinator too!)

Request materials from the Central Office at info@alphasigmanu.org. If you have ideas for promotional items, let the Central Office know!

Logo Use – Use only the trademarked key logo when printing on materials.

We know the good ideas are flowing! There is no minimum number of events required of Chapters, but we suggest at least two events per semester (meetings, service, marketing, lecture) to keep members engaged. Read through the Chapter Program Ideas page for inspiration from past years.

Three key reminders for programs:

  • Take photos and give credit. Assign a person at every event. Send your photos to the Central Office to be showcased on the website, social media, and in our newsletters.
  • Use the Haig Fund grants. Make your plans a reality with a little help from the Haig Fund. Apply for up to a $500 grant for a Chapter program. Be sure your chapter adviser is aware that you are using the grant opportunity.
  • Collaborate with other student organizations that you are involved with and/or department programs that are already existing. More hands make light work!
